  1. 11. Intermediation in Business Networks: A Case Study in the Textile and Clothing Industry

    Författare :Viktoria Sundquist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; textile; channel; clothing; industrial network; intermediation; intermediaries;

    Sammanfattning : Intermediation is a central concept in the marketing channel literature where it is used for analyzing how specific firms, intermediaries, connect producers and users. It is argued that intermediation is primarily about increasing transaction efficiency when intermediaries undertake functions for closing the gap between producer stocks and consumer assortments, thus bridging discrepancies in time and place between supply and demand.

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL), is the most common form of a group of diseases known as leishmaniases. They are caused by obligatory intracellular protozoa from the genus Leishmania and transmitted by sandflies. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Strategies in Cochlear Nerve Regeneration, Guidance and Protection : Prospects for Future Cochlear Implants

    Författare :Fredrik Edin; Helge Rask-Andersen; Peetra Magnusson; Maoli Duan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Human vestibular nerve; Scarpa s ganglion; Stem cells; Nanoparticles; Nanocrystalline diamond; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; Oto-rhino-laryngologi; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Today, it is possible to restore hearing in congenitally deaf children and severely hearing-impaired adults through cochlear implants (CIs). A CI consists of an external sound processor that provides acoustically induced signals to an internal receiver. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Learning Computing at University: Participation and Identity : A Longitudinal Study

    Författare :Anne-Kathrin Peters; Arnold Pears; Anders Berglund; Anna Eckerdal; Lars Ulriksen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; computing education research; engineering education research; computer science; higher education; engagement; diversity; equity; gender; competencies; culture; longitudinal; identity; participation; power; agency; uniformity; communities of practice; social theory of learning; phenomenography; student reflections; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datavetenskapens didaktik; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Science Education Research;

    Sammanfattning : Computing education has struggled with student engagement and diversity in the student population for a long time. Research in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education suggests that taking a social, long-term perspective on learning is a fruitful approach to resolving some of these persistent challenges.

  7. 15. A Novel Immersed-Boundary Method for Multiple Moving and Interacting Bodies

    Författare :Andreas Mark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid-structure interaction; DNS; immersed-boundary method;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the development, implementation and validation of an implicit, second order accurate, finite-volume and instationary immersed-boundary method for simulating the detailed flow around multiple arbitrary moving and interacting bodies. The potential for flows including moving bodies or boundaries, such as multiphase flows still has to be fully realized. LÄS MER
